"I would like the widths of the textarea and textfield to be the same on each browser. 1) Why? Who cares? Users tend to use only a single browser at any given moment and if the rendering does what you need it to do for them (not necessarily for your taste) you're 'good to go.' 2) In any case, if you're trying to provide for identical rendering across a variety of monitor sizes and resolutions, your intent is probably impractical, at the very least. Even today -- different browsers tend to produce variant results from identical html 3) So, you have an exceedingly difficult challenge, for the reasons in 2. But as long as you're merely concerned with making the fields -- as rendered case-by-case by a single browser for a single reader -- similar, you can try this (or, Update: tangent's or marto's approach, above). One possible approach (while still using CGI.pm), however, may be to specify a <body style="width: nn; max-width: nn;"> (where nn is in pixels) and to (manually) use css style to set percentage-valued widths for the individual textfields and textareas. (<style="overflow: scroll;"> may also help.) In reply to Re: perl CGI: textfield and textarea width variability
